Fans of cheesy movies have an extra reason to be thankful this holiday season! For the first time this century, Mike Nelson, Kevin Murphy and Bill Corbett are returning to the Satellite of Love for the MST3K Turkey Day Marathon: Back in Orbit. Fresh from making four episodes of MST3K: The RiffTrax Experiments, the trio is hosting this year’s Turkey Day marathon, with brand-new intros to a lineup of classic ’90s-era episodes.
The marathon begins at noon ET / 9 a.m. PT on Thursday, November 26, and features a heaping helping of cinematic turkey with six classic MST3K episodes chosen by Mike, Kevin, and Bill: The Final Sacrifice, The She-Creature, Boggy Creek 2, Time Chasers, Parts: The Clonus Horror, and Hobgoblins.
Unable to watch on Turkey Day? Don’t worry, following the initial presentation, the marathon, complete with intros, will run on the Mystery Science Theater 3000 channel once a day throughout the holiday weekend.
